An engineer designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The engineer designed the valve such tha

t it would produce a mean pressure of 5.4 pounds/square inch. It is believed that the valve performs above the specifications. The valve was tested on 24 engines and the mean pressure was 5.7 pounds/square inch with a standard deviation of 1.0. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places.

The p-value from the hypothesis test is 0.142 i.e., greater than the given significance level of 0.05. So, the null hypothesis is not rejected. The z-score for the given sample is 1.471.

<h3>What is the decision rule for the p-value approach to hypothesis testing?</h3>

The decision rule based on p-value states,

  • If p > α (significance level), then the null hypothesis is not rejected
  • If p < α (significance level), then the null hypothesis is rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

Since it is given that the valve would produce a mean pressure of 5.4 pounds/square inch. I.e., μ = 5.4 p/si

So, Defining the hypothesis:

Null hypothesis H0: μ = 5.4

Alternative hypothesis Ha: μ ≠ 5.4

It is given that,

The valve was tested on 24 engines. I.e., Sample size n = 24

The sample mean X = 5.7

Standard deviation σ = 1.0 and

The significance level = 0.05

Since the population distribution is approximately normal,

the test statistic is calculated as follows:

z = (X - μ)/(σ/\sqrt{n})

On substituting the value,

z = (5.7 - 5.4)/(1.0/\sqrt{24})

  = (0.3)/0.204

  = 1.471

Fron this z-score, the p-value is calculated as 0.142.

Since, the value of p > 0.05 (significance level), the null hypothesis is not rejected.

- 3 + 3x = 2x – 13 <br><br> I have to use more characters...
DENIUS [597]

- 3 + 3x = 2x – 13

Bring -3 to the right side of the equation by adding 3 to both sides

(- 3 + 3) + 3x = 2x – 13 + 3

0 + 3x = 2x - 10

3x = 2x - 10

Bring 2x to the other side by subtracting 2x to both sides

3x - 2x = 2x - 2x - 10

x = -10

Check:

-3 + 3(-10) = 2(-10) - 13

-3 + (-30) = -20 - 13

-33 = -33

Hope this helped!

help I will fail math class please help doors for the small cabinets are 11.5 inches long . doors for the large cabinet are 2.3
VARVARA [1.3K]
11.5 * 2.3 = large door size
large door size / 12 = large door size in feet
large door size in feet / 10 = how many large doors can be cut from the board. (you have to round it down if there's a decimal- no 1/2 doors.)
